I'm lying down again Deep in the cold dark earth A single bell tolls loudly To signify my birth

For tonight is the night I'm creeping o-so slowly from the dank and dusty coffin Shaking dirt from shrouded limbs A spluttering and coughing

I look around the gruesome awful place Shadows dancing everywhere Deeply, dark like treacle Pretending to be lace

Now others come and join me Celebration on their lips Of death, eternal life and. Strife In their hollow bony grip

The dance that always follows The tolling of the bell Don't be a little shy Come have a peek and tell
